This DAC/amp combo is a beast! The ESS ES9038Q2M DAC delivers crystal-clear audio with an impressive 120dB dynamic range. The Gain+ mode is perfect for driving my high-impedance headphones without breaking a sweat.

Love the fully balanced circuitry and the 4.4mm preamp output, which makes my setup super clean. The separate USB ports for power and data are a great feature, but I wish the battery lasted a bit longer on heavy use.

Super portable and powerful enough to drive planar magnetic headphones. The Gain+ mode really helps with more demanding IEMs, but I noticed a bit of warmth after extended use. Still, a fantastic unit!
